That's the game right there. Very disappointing performance by the Cougs.

And Hall's feet have been happier than I can ever remember.

At least Stephensen is looking good tonight.

TCU has our number.

I am not playing the "Refs Suck" card, however I have noticed 2 penalties where they flagged the wrong number and the iffy personal foul calls against Hooks and Logan leave my persecution complex feeling greatly amplified. That being said, I can't shake the feeling that BYU needs to dig deep within and find their mojo or this will get much worse before it gets better as far as it comes to playing against TCU.

TCU is the better team, and it's clear. That being said, the ref's suck, and it is certainly making our bad situation worse.

This is not the refs fault, but they seem to have a double standard as far as late hits are going. BYU has nothing on TCU right now.

Game plan for TCU
1. Get early lead-CHECK
2. Pressure Hall-CHECK
3. Take a lot of time off the clock, even if you don't score and put pressure on Hall to mount a comeback-CHECK

Perfect gameplan vs BYU.

You forgot to mention a lack of game planning by BYU.

I really thought Bronco was just being sly when he said he wasn't scheming anything for this game. Guess I was wrong...

I think that intentional grounding and fumble warrants a double secret crap...

haha...do you think we even score again?

No way we pull this game off. I say give Nelson some experience so he knows what it's like to play TCU and then he won't be caught by surprise next season.

with 12 minutes left I sure as heck hope we can score or else I'll be like the BYU 'fan' I thought I'd never become and start thinking that we can never win the 'big' game. It gives me the heebie jeebies even thinking that way but this game is slowly gnawing away at me. This game rates up there with the CSU and Boise State 58-13/50-12 games. Yuck.
